Logistics performance index: Efficiency of customs clearance process (1=low to 5=high)
Data
are from Logistics Performance Index surveys conducted by the World
Bank in partnership with academic and international institutions and
private companies and individuals engaged in international logistics.
2009 round of surveys covered more than 5,000 country assessments by
nearly 1,000 international freight forwarders. Respondents evaluate
eight markets on six core dimensions on a scale from 1 (worst) to 5
(best). The markets are chosen based on the most important export and
import markets of the respondent's country, random selection, and, for
landlocked countries, neighboring countries that connect them with
international markets. Details of the survey methodology are in Arvis
and others' Connecting to Compete 2010: Trade Logistics in the Global
Economy (2010). Respondents evaluated efficiency of customs clearance
processes (i.e. speed, simplicity and predictability of formalities), on
a rating ranging from 1 (very low) to 5 (very high). Scores are
averaged across all respondents.
